When you start to think about the design possibilities that gauged porcelain tile panels/slabs bring to the tile industry, you begin to realize what a game changer it can be.
All across the U.S., there are thousands upon thousands of beautiful, high-quality, and long-lasting tile installations which should be highlighted as examples of the work done by qualified labor as included in the TCNA Handbook. However, when the very sad examples of extremely poor work are seen, they should be reviewed and presented as a learning tool for the tile placer who needs to improve his or her skills.
Mapei’s Ultraflex LHT SG is a standard-grade, non-sag, nonslump, polymer-modified, large-and-heavy tile mortar and thin-set mortar for interior/exterior installations on floors, walls, and countertops.
When gauged porcelain tile panels/slabs were first introduced to the flooring industry, they typically measured one or two feet in width and length. Now, after nearly a decade of development from tile flooring manufacturers, porcelain tile panels/slabs can be as large as 10 feet by five feet, and in some cases with custom flooring—even larger.
The largest indoor waterpark in New York State as well as 324 rooms in an adjoining all-suite resort now feature Mapei tile/stone installation and waterproofing products throughout because one man followed his instincts and followed up a phone call with an in-person visit. The story of Mapei intervention at the Kartrite Resort proves that persistence pays off.
